Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color-6] add color functions for some (or all) compositing/blending operations (#8431)

Big -1 to this new `color-layers()` name, to the point I'd consider objecting.

This is a function creating a `<color>`, not returning a layer of any sort (or multiple layers as the current name implies!). As an author, I find it **incredibly** confusing. `color-over()` was much more natural, and this has nothing to do with Porter-Duff. You're literally putting a color over another and just optionally specifying the blending mode. This is how you'd talk about it in natural language. 

`color-blend()` would also be fine, and I could live with `color-stack()`. But gosh not `color-layers()`.
